I was flipping TV channels and landed on a movie called Code Name:Wolverine. The first thing I saw was Jubal Early talking to somebody about a kidnapping. I kept expecting him to say, "...does that seem right to you?"

I'm looking forward to the DVDs too, even though I've got a set from TRS80 (generously lent to me from LOSTANGEL), and I'm making my own copies, as well as putting the other three eps on DVD. I'm especially looking forward to watching the episodes without the frequent FOX logo in the corner... Unfortunately, I hate the thought of any of my money going to Fox to buy the DVDs. Maybe I'll shoplift the set... or better yet, hijack the truck that's delivering them...

OFFICER 1: Can you describe the guy?
Truck Driver: He was tall, blonde, and was wearing a long brown coat. He kept asking me where the "gorram Firefly DVD sets" were... I never heard of Firefly, have you?
OFFICER 2: No, is it some kind of kids program?
OFFICER 1: I don't know. So what was taken?
Truck Driver: That's the weird thing. That's all he took. He moved thousands of dollars of DVDs to take just those Firefly thingys...
OFFICER 2: Maybe we should find out what's so important about this "Firefly" show...

A friend of mine came over today and was gushing on about his new girlfriend.. Apparently she insists on washing him, shaving him, manicuring his nails, massaging him then sexing him each and every day....

Now, my wife is not quite as enthusiastic as my friends new slave girl..

The thing that came to my mind whilst my friend was gushing on and on was "Our Mrs Reynolds" when Wash and Zoe came into the Mess while Safron was feeding Mal. Safron suggesting that Zoe could make a meal for her husband. Wash's response "How Quaint" while looking sheepishly at Zoe.

Does this make sense? I chuckled in my head at the time..

I told my wife this story and she gave me the same look Zoe gave Wash when Safron first made the suggestion...



Mal - "Whats it say in there about divource?"

Eating lunch at the Lai-Lai Dumpling House, using chop sticks 'cause I wasn't even given a fork, I was having lunch with my friend Simon, and then to top it off the waitress was named "Caylee".

whoa - now that's a bit of deja vu if I ever heard it.

i saw Sinbad over the weekend and even despite being an animated feature, found myself thinking, "Man! Sinbad is like Mal with a goatee."

it's pitiful, people...just plain pitiful.

Yes, it should have been with a "K', but "Caylee" was good enough for me to enter my Serenity zone.

I was pouring milk onto my cereal at breakfast this morning when I suddenly thought of Firefly. I don't know why.

But what I do know is that the milk ended up everywhere but on the cereal....

Book: “A duel?”
Wash: “With swords?”
Simon: “The Captain's a good fighter, he must know how to handle a sword?”
Zoe: “I think he knows which end to hold.”

once again, a strawberry is all it took...and there I am, floating through space in Serenity's mess hall, eating berries with Kaylee, and dreaming that I was a strawberry too.

I was at Border's, writing down the name of an author for a book I was going to check out at the library. The author's first name was "Jane" Something, only I started spelling it with a "Y" in the middle without even thinking.

During "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" Sean Connery used the word "notion" in a sentence. I don't remember what he said because in my head I heard Mal's voice saying, "That's the notion."

The other day, I noticed a fox out in the forest licking its own ass. And for some reason, I dont know why, I thought of Firefly.

Lol! Amen to that!

So at my work I have a little dinosaur (stegosaurus) that I like to play with. It sits next to my computer moniter in plain view of anyone who may walk by. I enjoy reliving Wash's mad little scene at the beginning of the pilot. So anyway, today, a really cute little red-haired girl (who I have been smiling and making eyes at for a few days - a real Gu nian zhong de gu nian) comes over to my desk and gives me another little dinosaur (stegosaurus) that breaks apart into puzzle pieces. I was extremely pleased and struck at how fortunate I was, and let's not forget that momentarily and immediately upon receiving her gift I was struck by Firefly. Everything about that dino means Firefly to me. Not only because of the aforementioned, but the first dino (that sits on my desk - now with a new friend) was recently given to me by a fabulous fan here at FFF, whom I won't name because then everybody'd be hittin' her up for gifts. Also, it gave me a great opportunity/excuse to go and talk to her later on. Let me just say that I am in love, and you are all the first to know.

Spoiler Alert:

While watching "Pirates of the Caribbean"

Johnny Dep has a line where he says (to the effect) "A ship is not a keel and sails. That is what a ship has, but it is not what it is. Its freedom."

Cut to Mal showing Zoe around Serenity the first time, in Out of Gas.

Not of Firefly, but of our Browncoats here:

Was working on a project for work this morning and needed the name of a female astronaut. First one I happened up on was Kathryn Sullivan and I had to type it four times to get it to be not "Kaythryn."

Kaythryn. The red-head with the hand cannon.
